I’ve got 2 hosts. A slightly more powerful sff tower running my media stuff and arr services. VPN gateway that the arr’s route through etc. I have a raspberry pi that’s running my Adblocker, reverse proxy, Wireguard some stuff for a small business I run… So a website platform and invoice/time logging system.

Anyway these various services are mostly secured by password. Only the website is accessible externally. Any other service is only accessible internally or via Wireguard VPN.

Just at that stage asking myself “where do I draw the line?”

Would be nice to centrally manage logins but I suspect the mismash of services I run wont all support SSO.

I think In today it must be near 25-30 services / containers.

Authentik looks good. But wondering whether it’s just going to be something I only use a fraction of and “a bit overkill” for my needs?

    I think it depends on your use case.

    If you live alone, or maybe with one other person, the people staying at your house don’t change, then why bother with SSO?

    If you’re like me, have 4 people living in the house, 2 are lodgers, sometimes people come and stay for a while and need home assistant access, different people need different privileges, you need to provision wireguard for everyone, etc.
